  • After receiving the DNA results from #MyHeritageDNA I thought they were brought for some regions and were not that specific so I purchased a new DNA kit from #AncestryDNA. There are some similarities but BIG differences. Please let me know what you think about the results and if you have also experienced such differences.

    I’m Turkish Cypriot and I also did a DNA test, I was shocked by the results. I got 76% Cypriot, 6% Greek Islands, 5% Greece & Albania, 3% Italian, 4% Anatolia & Caucasus. Love that I got a high percentage for Cyprus though! 🇨🇾❤

    As a Greek Cypriot born and riased in the UK, I did my ancestry test back in 2014. Back then the tests weren't as cheap as today, When I researched it the quality of the results vary. Therefore, the more you pay the more thorough the results. I paid £250 for a good test. The results are also displayed in a variety of ways. I'll share some of my results with you if interested: 52% Anatolian caucasion! (That's what you get when your dad is from Kaspasia lol). 24% Mediteranean, 10% Ashkenazi Jewish, 7% Balto Slavic and 6% Finish. My eyes are brown and even if marry someone else with brown eyes, the test told me there's a small chance my kids could have blue eyes. My DNA also sits between Cyrpiot and Armenian. All the best! Nick :)

    MyHeritageDNA hasn't been updated in many years and is considered the least accurate and broader when it comes to ethnicity estimate. Ancestry and 23andMe are the industry standard. Much more specific, much larger database and reference samples to compare to

      @erhanaksu5160 2 года назад +2

      The Levant is common in Greek and Turkish Cypriots, probably comes from the Phoenician influence on Cyprus from many centuries ago. It's weird how Cypriots from both sides don't have as much mainland Greek DNA as you would expect though.

    Merhaba Ahmetcim napan?
    You are wrong to think ancestry DNA is the better of the two.
    Even the naked eye can detect that you have dominant Central Asian (that includes North Eastern Iranian) features.
    You are most certainly not 43% Cypriot.
    My educated guess is your ancestors were Turkmen from Central Türkiye who moved to Cyprus in the 18th or 19th Century.
    Cypriot DNA is near identical to Syrian albeit with a higher dosage of Northern Italian and Egyptian DNA for the simple reason that the Venetians mixed with the local Greek speaking Cypriot population and many of them left the Latin Church and were rebaptised as Orthodox once Venetian rule collapsed on the island.
    The Egyptian DNA which constitutes 12% - 15% of Greek Cypriot DNA is a result of the links Cyprus had with Egypt before the first Turk even set foot on the Island.
    Hellenic DNA is negligible in Cyprus because the vast majority of Hellenics (aka Greeks) moved out of Cyprus during the centuries of frequent raids by Persian and Arab pirates as the island had no way of protecting agricultural and unfortified settlements.
    In the Byzantine era these Persians and Arabs (many of whom were also Arabic speaking Syriacs) were Hellenised and today call themselves "Greek".
    Cyprus produces very good potatoes (and other starchy root vegetables) which was a sought after commodity in Egypt.
    Traders between the Byzantine Empire and Egypt often transited in Cyprus to stock on crops and they also traded slaves who more often than not were Nubians from Southern Egypt.
    For this reason many Greek Cypriots are noticeably darker than Greeks on mainland Greece where Slaves and farm workers were mostly brought in from campaigns with the Slavs and Avars.
    Contrary to what many people think there was very little mixing between Turks and Greeks in Cyprus which is why members of the two communities do not resemble each other.
    All the best and I wish to say I absolutely love Turk Cypriots.
    They are friendly, hospitable, a lot less materialistic than 'Greek' Cypriots are and they also take themsleves less seriosuly (i.e they are less concerned about image
    and more into enjoying life).
